Given the results of a crosstabulation of Sex and Favourability towards the death penalty in all cases where a death occurs.

The data are as below

	Vary Favourable	Somewhat favourable	not favourable	Total
Male	35	57	60	152
Female	81	33	25	139
Total	116	90	85	291

Since this is classic case of comparing the association between two attributes/categorical variable.

As asked, providing the hypothesis for this problem.

The hypothesis would be

Null Hypothesis(H0): Sex and Favourability towards the death penalty are independent.

Or There is no association between Sex and Favourability towards the death penalty.

Alternative Hypothesis(H1): Sex and Favourability towards the death penalty are not independent.

Or There is a association between Sex and Favourability towards the death penalty.

Note: Kindly do share your data either in text format or actual screenshot instead of link. :-)
